University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten Screenshot from the study prototype explaining one of the four visualization techniques - Braided Collapsed Horizon Graphs (BHG) - 1 In this user study we compare four different visualization techniques of times series in a spatial context using small multiples. Braided Collapsed Horizon Graphs divide the line plot in non-overlapping horizontal and vertical squares. From a 2D color map each square is assigned a unique color. The squares are then layered on top of each other. Applying the idea of Braided Graphs for each intersection point of the line graphs, the areas below the line graphs are split at this location and ordered low-to-high. This screenshot explains the construction of Braided Collapsed Horizon Graph. en IMAGE Image visualization, user study, evaluation, time series, spatial data, collapsed horizon graphs, compact boxplots, braided graphs 2019 2019 Dahnert, Manuel Kehrer, Johannes Aigner, Wolfgang Rind, Alexander
